NBA YoungBoy just dropped a bombshell for his fans: if you don’t show up to his “Make America Slime Again (MASA)” Tour, he doesn’t want you listening to his music anymore. In a raw and emotional video shared on X, the 25-year-old rapper, whose real name is Kentrell Gaulden, laid it all bare, urging his supporters to prove their loyalty by attending his first-ever headlining tour.
“If you don’t come to my tour, don’t bump me no more,”
He said, visibly frustrated.
“Nigga went through all this shit trying to get back to you, and you just gone kick me to the curb. How you gonna do me like that? That’s fucked up.”
The MASA Tour, kicking off September 2, 2025, at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, marks YoungBoy’s big return to the stage after a five-year hiatus. The 27-city U.S. tour wraps up on October 19, 2025, in his hometown of New Orleans at the Smoothie King Center. With special guests DeeBaby, EBK Jaaybo, and K3 joining him, the tour is already generating massive buzz, with some dates, like Dallas and Houston, selling out fast. Due to overwhelming demand, extra shows have been added in cities like New Orleans and Atlanta, proving YoungBoy’s fanbase is as dedicated as ever.
His blunt message comes on the heels of a tough chapter in his life. Recently released from federal prison in March 2025 after serving time on firearms charges, YoungBoy hinted at his struggles in the video, saying,
“You remind me of a girl that no longer loves me.”
Fans feel the weight of his words, with many taking to social media to share their reactions. Some are hyped to attend, with one X user writing,
“Gotta pull up to Minneapolis!”
Others, however, pointed out barriers like sold-out shows or steep ticket prices, with one fan joking,
“I ain’t paying $400 for five songs!”
Another chimed in from overseas, saying,
“What about us in Africa? We can’t bump his music no more?”
Tickets for the tour went on sale to the public today, May 22, 2025, at 10:00 AM local time through platforms like Ticketmaster. With some arenas already sold out, fans are scrambling to secure spots, and resale prices are climbing. The tour’s high demand shows YoungBoy’s pull in the rap game, but his callout has sparked a debate: is it fair to demand fans attend his shows to prove their loyalty?
